which effectually choked off the disturber
amid storm of applause.
A RUSH WAS MADE FOR THE WOMAN,
but she was among her friends and surg
would-be assailants. At this moment Mr..
O'Brien entered the park in a carriage.
One hundred and fifty policemen, in charge
Of Lieutenant Colonel Grassett, were scat
tered through the crowd or drawn up in
file on the outskirts. Sergeant Seymour
was in charge of squad of mounted pO-
lice and when the disturbance and at
tempted breaking up of the meeting took
place, they most determinedly took their
place and remained there from the begin
ming to the end of both Mr.. O'Brien's and
Mr.. Kilbride's speeches. The policemen
quietly folded their arms and said not
word. In all, the active disturbers did not
number more than sixty persons and many
of them were armed with sticks. Two
sycamore trees in front of the platform
were taken possession of by crowd of
young rOughs who
KISSED IN THE SPEAKERS FACE
during the greater part of the time until
few powerful men among the national
lists caught hold of the trunks of the trees
and shook the disturbers to the ground.
This seemed to anger the Orangemen, who
knocked down two or three of the nation
alists with their clubs. The nationalists
in return used their fists quite freely.
Police inspector Archibald and Deputy
Chief Stuart, in company with Colonel
Crossett smiled in good natured way and
used no effort to drive off the rowdies who
pressed with all their might to reach the
front of the platform, but in vain. With the
exception of couple ofpolicemen on horse
back no attempt was made to interfere with
the rioters. Representatives of Ameican

point by displacing the nationalist and

the Americans signalled to the
nationalists m, to keep their places.
in the interest Of peace, because if the
Orangemen had reached that spot bloody
time would certainly have ensued. So an

platform that they threatened to throw
them head over heels to the ground if they
attempted any such signal again: The
talk at the same time as O'Brien. They
rOared themselves hOarse amid the frantic
cheers and yells of the c0terie, who shouted
in derisive chorus at those on the platform:
"Pay your rentv'
"HURRAH FOR LANSDOWNEW
God save the queen" The first signal to
interrupt, by groaning and singing "God
Save the Queen,' was given on the appear
ance of ia. Mulligan, president of the
of hn Tr;c oLo;
man of the meeting. But he held out, as did
O'Brien and Kilbride, and in the end
following resolution was passed amid out
bursts of cheering from thousands, and
groans of dissent from groups of Orange
men:
Resolved, That this meeting of citizens
of Toronto warmly sympathiZe with the
mission of VIM. O'Bren. NJ. P, in Canada,
and take this opportunity of entering a
protest against the unjust and cruel treat
ment of tenants at Lugaccurran by Lord
LanSdOWne.
o'BRIEN's ADDRESS.
O'Brien Said:"We come here to demand
an answer from either Lord Lansdowne or
his friends. Here are his friends, two
dozen of them [Groans, cheering and cries
of Brand O'Brien"] whom good police
man could knock out in few minutes
if they only wanted to, and the only an
swer they can give for the high and
mighty potential who has sent them here
is cackling like geese or tile groans Of
jackasses. Loud laughter and cheers
They attempt to shout down freedom Of
speech. [Groans and cheers.] WE'LL we

we will succeed in putting them

who are making this fight to-day. Here

dismal howliDg.] We to-day are the party
of law and order; and we defy anybody to
deny it. [Cheers and groans, and several
voices cried brand O'Brien." "The heart
of Ireland is at your back" shouted one,
and "The heart of Canada" cried another
A man from the Orange party here got in
front of the platform among the national
lists and began singing

His silk hat was crushed in by those
around him, and he disappeared under the

demonstration takes the last sod from un-
der Lansdowne's feet, for by it he con-
fesses that he has no better answer to our
terrible arraignment than the rowdyism,
blackguardism, vulgarity and ignorance of
this wretched and despicable crew."
At the conclusion OF his address Mr..
O'Brien was driven from the park in car
riage guarded by squad of police. In the
evening banquet was given at which 500
prominent Irishmen were present.
